    Ever see a dog fly?

    Got this in e-mail at work... I need a favor !! My neighbor has a puppy he's giving away (FREE!). It's a Dachshund, it's house broken, and it's great with kids. He's giving it away because his wife says the dog 'stares' at her, and that gives her the 'Heebie Jeebies'. If...

    Monte LS Headlights project (photo)

    Got that right. They sell some tacky stuff over there. Disclaimer: I'm putting the Celebrity lights on my MCSS but not endorsing their other crap.

    Monte LS Headlights project (photo)

    Lauren Engineering sells fiberglass buckets for mounting 87-90 Celebrity lights into the Monte Carlo SS. The Celebrity headlights are the same size as a pair of rectangular sealed beams and will likely be easier to fit in the Buick. The MCLS lights are an odd size that will only fit its...

    Gator Nationals

    Flying in Thursday, home on Monday. Stopping at Don Garlits' museum for the first time since 1988. I got rained out at Indy in September, so good weather would be a bonus. Anyone know where the nudie bars are in Gainesvelle?;)

    UB Machine Tubular A-Arms

    Here's a picture of Global West arms and B-car spindles on a G-body. These arms have stops to prevent the arms from reaching full droop. I'm not expecting any wheels-up launches, though. There are less expensive arms for this swap, but I really wanted the Del-A-Lum bushings.

    Body bushings

    I did this job on my Monte last year. Had a ball. 26 bushings sounds right. But there are only 12 bolts. #5 bushing requires no bolts. BTW, The #1 bolt was slightly longer than 2, 4, 6 & 7. #3 was shorter and smaller in diameter. The shouldered bolts are available from GM. Your results...

    12" brake upgrade--which bearings

    big brake bearings I don't recall the brand name the bearings I used, but the #'s were set3 and set6. Sounds like you're using the equivalent pieces. I wouldn't expect the inner bearing to reach the inner end of the spindle, so the fit of the inner bearing sounds good. Can't wait to try...

    More suspension questions...

    After hearing 1LE bushings hyped in coutless threads like this one, I bought a set for my MCSS. The larger of the two lower control arm bushings doesn't fit the G-body arm! Has anyone actually put these bushings in their G-body?
